FMC Corporation (FMC, Financial) has secured official approval in Brazil for its innovative product, Sofero Fall, aimed at combating the fall armyworm in row crops. This product is the pioneering member of FMC's Sofero pheromone solutions portfolio, offering growers a sustainable alternative for pest management, resistance control, and crop yield enhancement.
Sofero Fall employs a unique action mechanism called mating disruption, which interrupts the pest's reproductive cycle, preventing new generations from emerging. This early intervention helps protect crops during their crucial growth stages. Sofero Fall is designed to be used in conjunction with synthetic, biological, and precision technologies as part of an integrated pest management strategy.
While Sofero Fall has achieved registration in Brazil, FMC is also awaiting approval in Mexico for another pheromone product, Sofero Frugi, which also targets the fall armyworm. This approval is expected to occur in 2027, further expanding FMC's portfolio of sustainable pest control solutions globally.
